Title: ADVANCED CONSIDERATIONS IN LIDAR TECHNOLOGY: APPLICATION ENHANCEMENT, INSPECTION WORKFLOW IMPLEMENTATION AND DATA COLLECTION QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Author: Bian, Haitao
Date Created: 2012
Subjects--Topical: Civil engineering
Description: Bridge inspection is a critical topic in infrastructure management and is facing unprecedented challenges as the public is concerned more about bridge safety after a series of bridge failures. LiDAR based remote sensing is recommended as a way in ...

Title: MODELING RISK AND THE EFFECT OF AN INCREASE IN FREEWAY POSTED SPEED LIMIT ON CRASHES IN SPEED-CHANGE LANES
Author: Tagar, Synthia
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Transportation, Statistics
Description: Providing adequate design standards and capacity of speed-change lane is important for merging and diverging traffic to safely complete their maneuvers. Short speed-change lanes limit the ability of merging vehicles (/diverging vehicles) to reach ...
